Answer 1

Press return in the string option in GUIDE to start new lines.

Programatically, use a cellarray of strings for the string option:

uicontrol('style','popup','string',{'option 1';'hello world';'Is it Friday yet?'})

Answer 2

[Dr. Seis]

temp_cellstr = {'choice 1';'choice 2';'choice 3'};
set(handles.your_popup_name,'String',temp_cellstr);

Or you can open the "Property Inspector" inside GUIDE and manually change the String values there.

but in property inspector i can only change 1 value, doesnt let me add more

[Dr. Seis]

You can... you just need to click the list icon next to the edit dialog

How can I connect the values I added to the popupmenu with their files? They are configfiles in this case, so no m files.
